Dear Gunnar, I tried to collect some more information for the Maintainer.
First I need to create a .irbrc with the USE_SINGLELINE set to true, to reach any function in libedit/readline. Next I tried to reach the address given in _IO_new_file_overflow, but was not able to. This might be related to some EOF handling or some customer buffer settings. Therfore, maybe you could have a look at your .irbrc if there is any setting that sounds related. (And just to be on the safe side, maybe you could do a memory test to exclude a hardware failure.) Kind regards, Bernhard echo IRB.conf[:USE_SINGLELINE]=true >> .irbrc benutzer@debian:~$ irb irb(main):001:0> 20000 * 1.03 $ gdb -q --pid $(pidof irb) ...
